About six months after the events occured on the planet Aether, Samus Aran is again issued an assignment by the Galactic Federation; she is to travel to the [[GFS Olympus]], the flagship of the Galactic Federation, for a scheduled meeting with [[Fleet Admiral Castor Dane]] and three other hunters - [[Rundas]], the arrogant, ice-wielding hunter;<ref>{{cite|Subject is a native of Phrygis, a moon of planet Bes III known primarily for ice mining. The Phrygisian ability to manipulate and generate ice has come in handy in subject’s career as a Bounty Hunter.

Only 6% of subject’s birth-body remains; the rest is state-of-the-art cyberware. Despite his career and heavy cybernetic modification, subject is known for his high level of empathy and compassion. Ghor is rather gentle and approaches situations logically, but is not the most skilled of fighters. Intel suggests he even has a sense of humor. Subject has often championed the weak, poor, and downtrodden, working for free or giving bounty money earned to the victims of his targets. Subject can merge his cybernetic body into larger mechanisms, including gunships and fightercraft. This merging will alter Ghor’s personality, and he will become incredibly aggressive and violent.

During the hunters' briefing, a Space Pirate raid on the ''Olympus'' is launched via several Space Pirate [[Boarding Pod]]s. The Space Pirates then launch an attack on the planet being orbited by the Olymupus; [[Norion]], which is one of the most important military planets in the entire Galactic Federation.<ref>{{cite|Though located on the fringe of the Federation, the planet Norion is of great importance. The military maintains a strong presence in this sector, and the base on Norion is often the first line of defense against enemies that operate outside of GF space.|[[Galactic Federation Data]] "Planet Norion"|Metroid Prime 3: Corruption}}</ref> Samus, Rundas, Ghor, Gandrayda, and the Galactic Federation give chase.
